Abstract :
On Thursday evening, June 29, during the convention of the Institute at Chicago, Mr. H. M. Byllesby, chairman of the entertainment committee, gave a dinner to 60 representative capitalists, men of affairs, publishers, and officers and members of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, in expressing a hospitable welcome to Chicago. The speeches at this dinner bore upon important industrial and conservation questions, in which the Institute has a deep interest. They have been published in a particularly attractive typographical form and presented as souvenirs to the guests at the dinner. Space will not permit the reprinting of the brochure in full, but it is thought the membership may be interested in the introductory address of Mr. Byllesby, and the replies of President Jackson and President-Elect Dunn.
